When and why did you start training for fighting? The Ultimate Fighter Season 1. Growing up, I was not allowed to watch the fights so I didn't focus on fighting at all; I just wrestled. I saw TUF season 1 and was addicted and slowly started training.

What has been your toughest fight to date and why? My toughest fight was against a kid in the regional MMA circuit named Levi Mowles.
